Hello all!
I've been lurking around the forums for about a month now, and I've seen alot of people asking whether or not they should purchase a CC/CW. Well, I was one of those that finally got tired of seeing all the excellent work being produced and not being able to join in the fun, and took the plunge. I wanted to share my experience(very limited) with the CW. I have had my CW for approx. 2 weeks. I have completed about 14 projects up to this point. Some just for fun and learning, others for family and friends. Most were about 1:45 min in length, 2 hrs max. The CW has performed flawlessly, without so much as a hiccup. Unless you count me loading the board on a front/back carve backwards and having it come out upside down! :rolleyes: Anyway, I just wanted to drop a quick note with something positive about the system. We see alot of postings about people having issues with the machine, but very few that actually say it's working!!! :D As someone on here posted before, those of us without problems aren't posting them because we are busy turning big pieces of wood into small ones!!!
The very limited advice that I can offer prespective owners is READ, READ, READ, and when you think you know it all, READ some more. Ths forum has helped me tremedously, and all I have done is READ! There is a slight learning curve, but nothing that can't be oversome with a little patience.
Thanks Everyone!
Dave
